The Hurriyat claimed "agencies have infiltrated elements into the movement to sabotage the programmes of the unified resistance leadership to spread disillusionment and create division and discord among the people on sectarian lines".
Staying alert and defeating such forces is the collective responsibility of the people at this time, the statement said, adding it is also important that hooliganism of all sorts is discouraged.
It asked people to cooperate with the local print and electronic media, saying they were reporting the facts even at times risking their lives in the line of duty.
It is important no hurdles are created for the media people in discharging their professional duties and they are not harassed as some reports suggest, the statement added.
